Turning speed for sure doesn't greatly benefit from instrumental experience. Pianist for 17 years and organist for about as long and fast playing usually results from great flow of the wrist. My turn speed is pretty terrible, though! I think the general dexterity gained translates to the cube just fine, just not the speed in particular. Perhaps skilled guitarists have better luck with that.

For me, it was learning how to use my left hand on the neck of the guitar. It has increased my left hand dexterity for precision tasks. Like with cubing, I need to be accurate with both hands.
